Description

Metal clad laminate and circuit substrate

technical field

The invention relates to a metal-clad laminate and a circuit substrate.

Background technique

In recent years, with the development of miniaturization, weight reduction, and space saving of electronic devices, flexible printed circuit boards (FPC: Flexible Printed Circuits), which are thin, lightweight, flexible, and have excellent durability even after repeated bending Demand is increasing. FPC can achieve three-dimensional and high-density installation even in a limited space, so its use is expanding to electronic devices such as Hard Disk Drive (HDD), Digital Versatile Disc (DVD), mobile phone, etc. Wiring of movable parts of equipment, or parts such as cables and connectors.

The FPC is manufactured by etching the copper layer of a copper-clad laminate (CCL) and performing wiring processing. In mobile phones or smart phones, for FPCs that are continuously bent or bent by 180°, rolled copper foil is mostly used as the material for the copper layer. For example, Patent Document 1 proposes that the bending resistance of a copper-clad laminate produced by using a rolled copper foil is defined by the number of cracking resistances. In addition, Patent Document 2 proposes a copper-clad laminate using a rolled copper foil specified in terms of glossiness and number of times of bending.

In the photolithography process performed on the copper clad laminate or the process of mounting the FPC, bonding, cutting, exposure, etching, etc. are performed based on the alignment mark provided in the copper clad laminate. Various processing. The machining accuracy in these steps is important in maintaining the reliability of the electronic device mounted with the FPC. However, since the copper clad laminate has a structure in which copper layers and resin layers having different thermal expansion coefficients are stacked, stress is generated between the layers due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficients between the copper layers and the resin layers. Part or all of the stress is relieved when the copper layer is etched for wiring processing, which causes expansion and contraction to cause changes in the dimensions of the wiring pattern. Therefore, a dimensional change finally occurs in the FPC stage, which causes poor connection between wirings or wirings and terminals, thereby reducing the reliability and yield of the circuit board. Therefore, dimensional stability is a very important characteristic in a copper-clad laminate as a circuit board material. However, in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2, no consideration is given to the dimensional stability of the copper-clad laminate.

In addition, in Patent Document 3, in order to reduce the thermal expansion coefficient of the insulating resin layer and improve the dimensional stability, a flexible metal-clad laminate comprising a copper foil and a non-thermoplastic polyimide layer is not provided with a thermoplastic polyimide layer. Among them, as the diamine component of the non-thermoplastic polyimide layer, p-phenylenediamine (p-PDA) or 2,2'-dimethyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl ( 2,2'-dimethyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl, m-TB) diamine compound and 1,3-bis(4-aminophenoxy)benzene (1,3-bis(4-aminophenoxy)benzene, TPE-R) and other diamine compounds. Although p-PDA is a monomer which lowers the thermal expansion coefficient and contributes to dimensional stability, since the molecular weight is small, the imide group concentration increases and the hygroscopicity of the polyimide increases. When the hygroscopicity of the polyimide increases, there is a problem that dimensional change and warpage are likely to occur due to environmental changes such as heating during circuit processing.

On the other hand, Patent Document 4 discloses that in a multilayer polyimide film in which the occurrence of cracks during circuit processing is suppressed, m-TB and p-PDA are used in combination as a non-thermoplastic polyimide film. The raw diamine compound. However, in the monomer composition of Patent Document 4, since the molar ratio of p-PDA in the diamine compound is too large, there is a problem similar to the above that the hygroscopicity of the polyimide increases, and the Dimensional change or warping is likely to occur due to environmental changes. In addition, Patent Document 4 describes the combination of m-TB with p-PDA and 2,2-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane (2,2-bis[4-(4- When aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane, BAPP) is used in combination as a diamine compound, crack resistance is deteriorated. In this case, since the molar ratio of p-PDA in the diamine compound is too large, it is considered that there is a problem that the hygroscopicity of the polyimide increases similarly to the above.

Detailed ways

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described.

<Metal-clad laminate>

The metal-clad laminate of the present embodiment includes: an insulating resin layer; and a metal layer laminated on at least one side of the insulating resin layer.

<Insulating resin layer>

In the metal-clad laminate of the present embodiment, the insulating resin layer has a thermoplastic polyimide layer on at least one surface of the non-thermoplastic polyimide layer. That is, the thermoplastic polyimide layer is provided on one side or both sides of the non-thermoplastic polyimide layer. For example, in the metal-clad laminate of the present embodiment, the metal layer is laminated on the surface of the thermoplastic polyimide layer.

Here, the so-called non-thermoplastic polyimide is usually a polyimide that does not show adhesiveness even if it is softened by heating, and in the present invention, a dynamic viscoelasticity measuring device (dynamic mechanical analyzer (dynamic mechanical analyzer) A polyimide having a storage elastic modulus at 30° C. measured by DMA) of 1.0×10 ⁹ Pa or more and a storage elastic modulus at 360° C. of 1.0×10 ⁸ Pa or more. In addition, the thermoplastic polyimide is usually a polyimide whose glass transition temperature (Tg) can be clearly confirmed, and in the present invention, it means that the storage elastic modulus at 30° C. measured using DMA is 1.0× A polyimide of 10 ⁹ Pa or more and a storage elastic modulus at 360° C. of less than 1.0×10 ⁸ Pa.

In the metal-clad laminate of the present embodiment, the insulating resin layer satisfies the following condition (i) and condition (ii), and also satisfies condition (iii), or both of condition (iv) and condition (v), or condition (vi) ) and condition (vii).

(i) The value of the in-plane birefringence (Δn) is 2×10 ⁻³ or less.

(ii) The variation [Δ(Δn)] of the in-plane birefringence (Δn) in the width direction (TD direction) is 4×10 ⁻⁴ or less.

(iii) The difference (Δnh-Δn) between the value of the in-plane birefringence (Δnh) after heating at 250° C. for 30 minutes and the value of the in-plane birefringence (Δn) before heating is ±2×10 ⁻⁴ or less .

(iv) In the thickness direction of the non-thermoplastic polyimide layer, the birefringence (Δna) at a point of 1.5 μm in the direction of the central portion based on one surface and the center based on the other surface The difference (Δna−Δnb) of the birefringence (Δnb) in the point of 1.5 μm in the partial direction was ±0.01 or less.

(v) The difference from the average value (Δnv) of the total (Δna+Δnb+Δnc) of the Δna and the Δnb and the birefringence (Δnc) in the central portion in the thickness direction is any one of the Δna and Δnb All of them were ±0.01 or less.

(vi) After drying at 80° C. for 1 hour, the moisture absorption rate (A _m ) after conditioning for 4 hours at a constant temperature and humidity of 23° C. and 50% RH is 1.0% by weight or less.

(vii) After drying at 80°C for 1 hour, under the constant temperature and humidity of 23°C and 50% RH, the moisture absorption rate (A m1 ) after conditioning for 1 hour and the moisture absorption rate (A _m1 ) after conditioning for 2 hours under the same conditions _m2 ) difference (A _m2 -A _m1 ) is 0.2 wt % or less.

Regarding the condition (i), when the value of the in-plane birefringence (Δn) exceeds 2×10 ⁻³ , the anisotropy of the in-plane orientation increases, which causes deterioration of dimensional stability. Although the lower limit of the value of Δn is not particularly limited, the in-plane orientation becomes isotropic and the dimensional stability is improved, and on the other hand, the thermal expansion coefficient is excessively lowered and the warpage caused by the mismatch with the thermal expansion coefficient of the metal foil is suppressed. From a viewpoint, it is preferable to set it as ^2x10-4 or more. From the above viewpoints, the value of the in-plane birefringence (Δn) of the insulating resin layer is preferably in the range of 2×10 ^-4 or more and 8×10 ^-4 or less, and more preferably 2×10 ^-4 or more and 6 x10 ^-4 or less.

In addition, regarding condition (ii), when the variation in Δn in the TD direction [Δ(Δn)] exceeds 4×10 ⁻⁴ , the variation in the in-plane orientation increases, which causes the in-plane variation in the dimensional change rate. The deviation of Δn in the TD direction [Δ(Δn)] is preferably 2×10 ⁻⁴ or less, and more preferably 1.2×10 ⁻⁴ or less. Within such a range, high dimensional accuracy can be maintained, for example, even when it is scaled up.

In addition, regarding the condition (iii), the difference (Δnh-Δn) in the values of the in-plane birefringence (Δn) before and after heating is ±2×10 ⁻⁴ or less, whereby the in-plane orientations are maintained in all directions before and after heating. Homogeneity, therefore, dimensional changes caused by heating can be suppressed. The difference (Δnh−Δn) in the values of the in-plane birefringence (Δn) before and after heating is preferably ±1.2×10 ⁻⁴ or less, and more preferably ±0.8×10 ⁻⁴ or less.

By satisfying the above-mentioned conditions (i) to (iii), the orientation of the polyimide constituting the insulating resin layer is improved, and the dimensional change due to heating can be suppressed, so that the dimensional stability is improved.

In addition, regarding the conditions (iv) and (v), the difference (Δna-Δnb) in the birefringence in the thickness direction of the non-thermoplastic polyimide layer is ±0.01 or less, and the Δna and Δnb are the same as the average The difference (Δnv-Δna) and the difference (Δnv-Δnb) of the values (Δnv) are both ±0.01 or less, whereby the homogeneity of the polyimide orientation in the thickness direction is improved, and the occurrence of warpage can be suppressed. Both the difference (Δnv-Δna) and the difference (Δnv-Δnb) are preferably ±0.008 or less, and more preferably ±0.006 or less.

In addition, by satisfying the condition (i), condition (ii), condition (iv), and condition (v), the orientation of the polyimide constituting the insulating resin layer is improved, the dimensional stability is improved, and the warpage is improved. occurrence is suppressed.

In addition, regarding the above-mentioned conditions (vi) and (vii), when the moisture absorption rate of the insulating resin layer becomes high, there is a problem that dimensional change and warpage are likely to occur due to environmental changes such as temperature and pressure. FIG. 1 is a graph showing changes in moisture absorption at a constant temperature and humidity of 23°C and 50% RH after drying at 80°C for 1 hour for two resins having different moisture absorption rates and changes in moisture absorption per unit time. In the comparison of the two resins showing the moisture absorption characteristics as shown in Fig. 1, the following insight was obtained: a resin having less not only a moisture absorption rate but also a change in moisture absorption rate per unit time (A _m2 - A _m1 ) is less sensitive to dimensional change or warpage It is more effective for the reduction of the curve. Therefore, by satisfying the above (vi) and condition (vii), it is possible to suppress the dimensional change or the warping. When the above-mentioned A _m exceeds 1.0 wt % or when (A _m2 -A _m1 ) exceeds 0.2 wt %, due to high temperature or high pressure, humidity changes, etc. The amount of dimensional change increases, the dimensional accuracy decreases, or warpage occurs.

By satisfying the condition (i) and the condition (ii), and satisfying the condition (iii), or both the condition (iv) and the condition (v), or both the condition (vi) and the condition (vii), it is possible to effectively Dimensional changes and warpage caused by environmental changes (eg, high temperature and high pressure environments, humidity changes, etc.) during circuit processing, substrate lamination, and component mounting processes are suppressed. On the other hand, in the absence of a combination of condition (i) and condition (ii) and condition (iii), or a combination of condition (i) and condition (ii) and condition (iv) and condition (v), or condition ( In the case of any combination of i) and the combination of condition (ii) and condition (vi) and condition (vii), due to high temperature or high pressure, humidity change, etc. The amount of dimensional change increases, the dimensional accuracy decreases, or warpage occurs.

For example, when the metal-clad laminate of the present embodiment is used as a circuit board material, it is important that the thermal expansion coefficient (CTE) of the insulating resin layer is 10 ppm in order to prevent the occurrence of warpage and the reduction of dimensional stability. /K or more and within a range of 30 ppm/K or less, preferably within a range of 10 ppm/K or more and 25 ppm/K or less. When CTE is less than 10 ppm/K or exceeds 30 ppm/K, warpage occurs or dimensional stability decreases. In addition, in the metal-clad laminate of the present embodiment, the CTE of the insulating resin layer is more preferably within a range of ±5ppm/K or less, and most preferably within a range of ±2ppm/K or less, with respect to the CTE of the metal layer including copper foil or the like. .

In the insulating resin layer, the non-thermoplastic polyimide layer constitutes a low thermal expansion polyimide layer, and the thermoplastic polyimide layer constitutes a high thermal expansion polyimide layer. Here, the low thermal expansion polyimide layer refers to a polyimide having a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) within a range of preferably 1 ppm/K or more and 25 ppm/K or less, and more preferably 3 ppm/K or more and 25 ppm/K or less. Amine layer. In addition, the polyimide layer with high thermal expansion means a CTE of preferably 35 ppm/K or more, more preferably 35 ppm/K or more and 80 ppm/K or less, and still more preferably 35 ppm/K or more and 70 ppm/K or less. polyimide layer. The polyimide layer can be a polyimide layer having a desired CTE by appropriately changing the combination of the raw materials used, the thickness, and drying and curing conditions.

The thickness of the insulating resin layer can be set to a thickness within a predetermined range according to the purpose of use. If the thickness of the insulating resin layer is less than the lower limit value, electrical insulating properties may not be ensured, or problems such as handling in the manufacturing process may be difficult due to reduced workability. On the other hand, when the thickness of the insulating resin layer exceeds the upper limit value, it is necessary to control the manufacturing conditions with high precision in order to control the in-plane birefringence (Δn) or the birefringence in the thickness direction, resulting in a decrease in productivity and the like. Bad condition.

In addition, in the insulating resin layer, the thickness ratio ((A)/(B)) of the thickness (A) of the non-thermoplastic polyimide layer to the thickness (B) of the thermoplastic polyimide layer is preferably in the range of 1 to 20 within the range of 2 to 12 is more preferable. In addition, when the number of layers of the non-thermoplastic polyimide layer and/or the thermoplastic polyimide layer is a plurality of layers, the thickness (A) or the thickness (B) means the total thickness. If the value of the ratio is less than 1, the non-thermoplastic polyimide layer with respect to the entire insulating resin layer becomes thinner, and thus the variation in the in-plane birefringence (Δn) tends to increase. If the value of the ratio exceeds 20 , the thermoplastic polyimide layer becomes thinner, and thus the adhesion reliability between the insulating resin layer and the metal layer tends to decrease. Here, the control of the in-plane birefringence (Δn) is related to the resin composition and thickness of each polyimide layer constituting the insulating resin layer. Regarding the thermoplastic polyimide layer made of resin that imparts adhesiveness, that is, high thermal expansion or softening, the larger the thickness thereof, the greater the influence on the value of Δn of the insulating resin layer. Therefore, it is preferable to increase the ratio of the thickness of the non-thermoplastic polyimide layer, decrease the ratio of the thickness of the thermoplastic polyimide layer, and reduce the value of Δn of the insulating resin layer and its deviation. As will be described later, in this embodiment, even when the ratio of the thickness of the thermoplastic polyimide layer is reduced, the thermoplastic polyimide layer is designed to contain a predetermined amount selected from the group consisting of general formula (2) and The diamine residue in the general formula (3) can thereby ensure the adhesiveness between the metal layer and the insulating resin layer.

In the metal-clad laminate of the present embodiment, it is preferable that the length (film width) in the width direction (TD direction) is preferably 490 mm or more and 1200 mm or less, from the viewpoint of exhibiting a greater effect of improving the dimensional accuracy of the insulating resin layer. Within the range of 520 mm or more and 1100 mm or less, the length of the long strip is preferably 20 m or more. In the case where the metal-clad laminate of the present embodiment is continuously produced, the effect of the invention is particularly remarkable as the width direction (TD direction) is wider. In addition, after continuously manufacturing the metal-clad laminate of the present embodiment, the long metal-clad laminate is cut by a certain value in the longitudinal direction (machine direction (MD) direction) and the TD direction of the long metal-clad laminate. ) obtained metal-clad laminate.

Moreover, when the insulating resin layer is used as a polyimide film, it is preferable to exist in the range of 3.0GPa - 10.0GPa, and, as for the tensile elastic modulus, it is more preferable to exist in the range of 4.5GPa - 8.0GPa. When the tensile modulus of elasticity at the time of making a polyimide film is less than 3.0 GPa, the strength of the polyimide itself is lowered, and as a result, when the metal-clad laminate is processed into a circuit board, cracking of the insulating resin layer may occur. and other operational problems. Conversely, when the tensile elastic modulus of the polyimide film exceeds 10.0 GPa, the rigidity of the metal-clad laminate against bending increases, and as a result, when the metal-clad laminate is bent, the metal wiring is applied The bending stress increases and the bending resistance decreases. The strength and flexibility of the insulating resin layer can be ensured by setting the tensile modulus of elasticity when the polyimide film is formed into the above-mentioned range.

(Non-thermoplastic polyimide)

In this embodiment, it is preferable that the non-thermoplastic polyimide constituting the non-thermoplastic polyimide layer contains a tetracarboxylic acid residue and a diamine residue, and these residues all contain an aromatic group. Since both the tetracarboxylic acid residue and the diamine residue contained in the non-thermoplastic polyimide contain aromatic groups, the ordered structure of the non-thermoplastic polyimide can be easily formed, and the surface of the insulating resin layer in a high temperature environment is suppressed. The amount of change in the in-plane birefringence (Δn) reduces the difference (Δnh-Δn) in the in-plane birefringence (Δn) values before and after heating, and can suppress variations in the in-plane birefringence (Δn). Furthermore, the birefringence change in the thickness direction can be suppressed.

Further, in the present invention, the term "tetracarboxylic acid residue" refers to a tetravalent group derived from tetracarboxylic dianhydride, and the term "diamine residue" refers to a divalent group derived from a diamine compound. In addition, regarding the "diamine compound", the hydrogen atoms in the two terminal amino groups may be substituted, for example, -NR ₃ R ₄ (here, R ₃ and R ₄ independently represent arbitrary substituents such as an alkyl group).

The tetracarboxylic acid residue contained in the non-thermoplastic polyimide is not particularly limited. For example, a tetracarboxylic acid residue derived from pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) (hereinafter also referred to as as PMDA residues), tetracarboxylic acid residues (below Also known as BPDA residues). These tetracarboxylic acid residues tend to form ordered structures, suppress the amount of change in in-plane birefringence (Δn) in a high-temperature environment, and reduce the difference in in-plane birefringence (Δn) values before and after heating (Δnh−Δn). ). Furthermore, the birefringence change in the thickness direction can be suppressed. In addition, the PMDA residue is a residue that functions to control the thermal expansion coefficient and control the glass transition temperature. Furthermore, with regard to the BPDA residue, since there is no polar group in the tetracarboxylic acid residue and the molecular weight is relatively large, the effect of reducing the imide group concentration of the non-thermoplastic polyimide and suppressing the moisture absorption of the insulating resin layer can also be expected. .

Here, "independently" means that in the formula (1), a plurality of substituents Y, integer p, and integer q may be the same or different.

The diamine residue (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "diamine residue (1)") derived from the diamine compound represented by the general formula (1) tends to form an ordered structure, improves dimensional stability, and can effectively inhibit In particular, the amount of change in the in-plane birefringence (Δn) in a high-temperature environment can be suppressed to a small value (Δnh−Δn) between the values of the in-plane birefringence (Δn) before and after heating. Furthermore, the birefringence change in the thickness direction can be effectively suppressed. From this viewpoint, the amount of the diamine residue (1) is 20 mol parts or more, preferably 70 mol parts to 95 mol parts with respect to 100 mol parts of all the diamine residues contained in the non-thermoplastic polyimide. Within the range, it is more preferable to contain within the range of 80 to 90 mol parts.

Preferred specific examples of the diamine residue (1) include diamine residues derived from the following diamine compounds: p-phenylenediamine (p-PDA), 2,2'-dimethyl-4,4' -Diaminobiphenyl (m-TB), 2,2'-diethyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl (2,2'-diethyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl, m-EB), 2 ,2'-diethoxy-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl (2,2'-diethoxy-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl, m-EOB), 2,2'-dipropoxy-4, 4'-diaminobiphenyl (2,2'-dipropoxy-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl, m-POB), 2,2'-n-propyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl (2,2' -n-propyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl, m-NPB), 2,2'-divinyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl (2,2'-divinyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl, VAB), 4,4'-diaminobiphenyl, 4,4'-diamino-2,2'-bis(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl (4,4'-diamino-2,2'-bis( trifluoromethyl) biphenyl, TFMB) and so on. Among these diamine compounds, 2,2'-dimethyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl (m-TB) is easy to form an ordered structure and can suppress the in-plane birefringence (Δn) in a high temperature environment This is particularly preferable because the change in the in-plane birefringence (Δn) before and after heating can be reduced (Δnh−Δn), and the change in birefringence in the thickness direction can be suppressed.

In addition, in order to reduce the modulus of elasticity of the insulating resin layer and improve elongation, bending resistance, etc., it is preferable that the non-thermoplastic polyimide contains a compound selected from the group consisting of the following general formula (2) and general formula (3) At least one diamine residue in the group consisting of diamine residues.

The diamine residues represented by the general formula (2) and the general formula (3) can impart flexibility to the insulating resin layer because they have a flexible portion. Here, since the diamine residue represented by the general formula (3) has four benzene rings, it is preferable to set the terminal group bonded to the benzene ring to the para position in order to suppress an increase in the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE). In addition, from the viewpoint of imparting flexibility to the insulating resin layer and suppressing an increase in the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), the diamine residues represented by the general formula (2) and the general formula (3) are relatively low relative to the non-thermoplastic polyimide. It is preferable to contain 100 mol parts of all the diamine residues contained in an amine in the range of preferably 5 mol parts - 30 mol parts, and more preferably 10 mol parts - 20 mol parts. When the diamine residues represented by the general formula (2) and the general formula (3) are less than 5 mole parts, the elastic modulus of the insulating resin layer may increase, the elongation may decrease, and the bending resistance and the like may decrease. When the diamine residue represented by the formula (2) and the general formula (3) exceeds 30 mole parts, the orientation of the molecules may be lowered, and it may become difficult to reduce the CTE.

As for the diamine residue represented by the general formula (2), one or more of m, n, and o is preferably 0, and preferable examples of the group R ₅ , the group R ₆ , and the group R ₇ include 1 to 1 carbon atoms. The alkyl group of 4 which may be substituted by a halogen atom, or the alkoxy group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, or the alkenyl group having 2 to 3 carbon atoms. In addition, in the general formula (2), preferable examples of the linking group X include -O-, -S-, -CH ₂ -, -CH(CH ₃ )-, -SO ₂ - or -CO-. Preferred specific examples of the diamine residue represented by the general formula (2) include diamine residues derived from the following diamine compounds: 1,3-bis(4-aminophenoxy)benzene (TPE-R ), 1,4-bis(4-aminophenoxy)benzene (1,4-bis(4-aminophenoxy)benzene, TPE-Q), bis(4-aminophenoxy)-2,5-di- tert-butylbenzene (bis(4-aminophenoxy)-2,5-di-tert-butyl benzene, DTBAB), 4,4-bis(4-aminophenoxy) benzophenone (4,4-bis( 4-aminophenoxy)benzophenone, BAPK), 1,3-bis[2-(4-aminophenyl)-2-propyl]benzene, 1,4-bis[2-(4-aminophenyl)-2- Propyl]benzene, etc.

In addition, in the general formula (3), preferable examples of the linking group X ₁ and the linking group X ₂ include a single bond, -O-, -S-, -CH ₂ -, -CH(CH ₃ )-, -SO _2- or -CO-. However, from the viewpoint of providing a bent portion, the case where both the linking group X ₁ and the linking group X ₂ are single bonds is excluded. Preferred specific examples of the diamine residue represented by the general formula (3) include diamine residues derived from the following diamine compounds: 4,4′-bis(4-aminophenoxy)biphenyl (4 ,4'-bis(4-aminophenoxy)biphenyl, BAPB), 2,2'-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane (BAPP), 2,2'-bis[4-( 4-Aminophenoxy)phenyl] ether (2,2'-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]ether, BAPE), bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]sulfone, etc. .

Among the diamine residues represented by the general formula (2), diamine residues derived from 1,3-bis(4-aminophenoxy)benzene (TPE-R) (sometimes referred to as "TPE-R") are particularly preferred. "R residue"), among the diamine residues represented by the general formula (3), those derived from 2,2'-bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane (BAPP) are particularly preferred Diamine residues (sometimes referred to as "BAPP residues"). Since the TPE-R residue and the BAPP residue have bendable portions, the elastic modulus of the insulating resin layer can be lowered and flexibility can be imparted. In addition, since the molecular weight of the BAPP residue is large, the effect of reducing the imide group concentration of the non-thermoplastic polyimide and suppressing the moisture absorption of the insulating resin layer can also be expected.

Other diamine residues contained in the non-thermoplastic polyimide include, for example, diamine residues derived from the following aromatic diamine compounds: m-phenylenediamine (m-PDA), 4,4 '-Diaminodiphenyl ether (DAPE), 3,3'-diaminodiphenyl ether, 3,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether, 4,4'- Diaminodiphenylmethane, 3,3'-diaminodiphenylmethane, 3,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane, 4,4'-diaminodiphenylpropane, 3,3'-diamino Diphenylpropane, 3,4'-diaminodiphenylpropane, 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl sulfide, 3,3'-diaminodiphenyl sulfide, 3,4'-diamino Diphenyl sulfide, 4,4'-diaminodiphenylsulfone, 3,3'-diaminodiphenylsulfone, 4,4'-diaminobenzophenone, 3,4'-diaminodiphenylsulfone Benzophenone, 3,3'-diaminobenzophenone, 2,2-bis-[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane, bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy) Phenyl]sulfone, bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)biphenyl, bis[1-(3-aminophenoxy)]biphenyl, bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl ]methane, bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]ether, bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)]benzophenone, 9,9-bis[4-(3-amino Phenoxy)phenyl]fluorene, 2,2-bis-[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]hexafluoropropane, 2,2-bis-[4-(3-aminophenoxy) Phenyl]hexafluoropropane, 3,3'-dimethyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl, 4,4'-methylenebis-o-toluidine, 4,4'-methylenebis- 2,6-xylidine, 4,4'-methylene-2,6-diethylaniline, 3,3'-diaminodiphenylethane, 3,3'-diaminobiphenyl, 3 ,3'-dimethoxybenzidine, 3,3"-diamino-p-terphenyl, 4,4'-[1,4-phenylenebis(1-methylethylene)]dianiline, 4,4'-[1,3-phenylene bis(1-methylethylene)]dianiline, bis(p-aminocyclohexyl)methane, bis(p-β-amino-tert-butylphenyl) ether , bis(p-β-methyl-δ-aminopentyl)benzene, p-bis(2-methyl-4-aminopentyl)benzene, p-bis(1,1-dimethyl-5-aminopentyl) Benzene, 1,5-diaminonaphthalene, 2,6-diaminonaphthalene, 2,4-bis(β-amino-tert-butyl)toluene, 2,4-diaminotoluene, m-xylene-2,5- Diamine, p-xylene-2,5-diamine, m-xylylenediamine, p-xylylenediamine, 2,6-diaminopyridine, 2,5-diaminopyridine, 2,5-diamino-1 , 3,4-oxadiazole, piperazine, etc.

In the non-thermoplastic polyimide, the molar ratio of each in the case of selecting the kind of the tetracarboxylic acid residue and the diamine residue, or using two or more tetracarboxylic acid residues or diamine residues , can control thermal expansion coefficient, storage elastic coefficient, tensile elastic coefficient and so on. In addition, when the non-thermoplastic polyimide has a plurality of structural units of the polyimide, it can exist in the form of a block, or it can exist randomly, from the suppression of the in-plane birefringence (Δn) From the viewpoint of deviation, it is preferable to exist randomly.

The imide group concentration of the non-thermoplastic polyimide is preferably 35% by weight or less. Here, the "imide group concentration" means a value obtained by dividing the molecular weight of the imide group (-(CO) ₂ -N-) in the polyimide by the molecular weight of the entire structure of the polyimide. When the imide group concentration exceeds 35% by weight, the molecular weight of the resin itself becomes small, and the low hygroscopicity also deteriorates due to an increase in polar groups. By selecting the combination of the acid anhydride and the diamine compound, the orientation of the molecules in the non-thermoplastic polyimide is controlled, thereby suppressing the increase in CTE accompanying the reduction in the imide group concentration, thereby ensuring low hygroscopicity.

The weight average molecular weight of the non-thermoplastic polyimide is, for example, preferably in the range of 10,000 to 400,000, and more preferably in the range of 50,000 to 350,000. When the weight-average molecular weight is less than 10,000, the strength of the insulating resin layer tends to decrease, and it tends to become brittle. On the other hand, when the weight average molecular weight exceeds 400,000, the viscosity tends to increase excessively, and defects such as uneven thickness and streaks tend to be easily generated during the coating operation.

(thermoplastic polyimide)

In this embodiment, it is preferable that the thermoplastic polyimide which comprises a thermoplastic polyimide layer contains a tetracarboxylic-acid residue and a diamine residue, and these residues all contain an aromatic group. Since both the tetracarboxylic acid residue and the diamine residue contained in the thermoplastic polyimide contain an aromatic group, the amount of change in the in-plane birefringence (Δn) of the insulating resin layer in a high temperature environment can be suppressed and reduced The difference (Δnh−Δn) between the values of the in-plane birefringence (Δn) before and after heating. Furthermore, the birefringence change in the thickness direction can be suppressed.

The tetracarboxylic acid residue contained in the thermoplastic polyimide is not particularly limited, and for example, a tetracarboxylic acid residue derived from pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) (hereinafter also referred to as PMDA residue) is preferably mentioned. ), a tetracarboxylic acid residue (hereinafter also referred to as BPDA residue) derived from 3,3',4,4'-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (BPDA). These tetracarboxylic acid residues tend to form ordered structures, suppress the amount of change in in-plane birefringence (Δn) in a high-temperature environment, and reduce the difference in in-plane birefringence (Δn) values before and after heating (Δnh−Δn). ). Furthermore, the birefringence change in the thickness direction can be suppressed. In addition, the PMDA residue is a residue that functions to control the thermal expansion coefficient and control the glass transition temperature. Furthermore, the BPDA residue has no polar group in the tetracarboxylic acid residue and has a relatively large molecular weight, so the effect of reducing the imide group concentration of the thermoplastic polyimide and suppressing the moisture absorption of the insulating resin layer can also be expected. From this viewpoint, the total amount of PMDA residues and/or BPDA residues is preferably 50 parts by mole or more, more preferably 50 parts by mole with respect to 100 parts by mole of all tetracarboxylic acid residues contained in the thermoplastic polyimide It is suitable to exist in the range of 70 mol part - 100 mol part most preferably in the range of mol part - 100 mol part.

As the other tetracarboxylic acid residues contained in the thermoplastic polyimide, tetracarboxylic acid residues derived from the same aromatic tetracarboxylic dianhydrides as those exemplified in the above-mentioned non-thermoplastic polyimides are exemplified.

In the present embodiment, the diamine residue contained in the thermoplastic polyimide is preferably at least one diamine residue selected from the above-mentioned general formula (2) and general formula (3). With respect to 100 mol parts of all diamine residues, the total amount of diamine residues selected from the general formula (2) and the general formula (3) is preferably 50 mol parts or more, more preferably 50 mol parts to 100 mol parts, and most preferably 50 mol parts to 100 mol parts. Preferably, it exists in the range of 70 mol part - 100 mol part. By including a total of 50 mol parts or more of the diamine residues selected from the general formula (2) and the general formula (3) with respect to 100 mol parts of all the diamine residues, flexibility can be imparted to the thermoplastic polyimide layer and adhesiveness, and make it function as an adhesive layer with respect to the metal layer. In addition, among the diamine residues represented by the general formula (2), a TPE-R residue is particularly preferable, and among the diamine residues represented by the general formula (3), a BAPP residue is particularly preferable. Since the TPE-R residue and the BAPP residue have bendable portions, the elastic modulus of the insulating resin layer can be lowered and flexibility can be imparted. In addition, since the molecular weight of the BAPP residue is large, the effect of reducing the imide group concentration of the thermoplastic polyimide and suppressing the moisture absorption of the insulating resin layer can also be expected.

In addition, as described above, when the non-thermoplastic polyimide constituting the non-thermoplastic polyimide layer contains a diamine residue selected from the group consisting of the general formula (2) and the general formula (3), the thermoplastic polyimide is constituted The thermoplastic polyimide of the imine layer preferably has a similar structure, preferably the same diamine residue selected from the general formula (2) and the general formula (3) as the diamine residue. In this case, the thermoplastic polyimide and the non-thermoplastic polyimide have different content ratios of diamine residues, but are formed by containing similar or the same diamine residues, especially by a casting method. In the case of a polyimide film, the orientation control of the thermoplastic polyimide layer and the non-thermoplastic polyimide layer becomes easy, and it becomes easy to manage the dimensional accuracy. From such a viewpoint, in the present embodiment, it is preferable that both the non-thermoplastic polyimide constituting the non-thermoplastic polyimide layer and the thermoplastic polyimide constituting the thermoplastic polyimide layer contain selected from the group consisting of At least one diamine residue in the general formula (2) and the general formula (3), the diamine residue most preferably contains a TPE-R residue and/or a BAPP residue.

In the present embodiment, the diamine residues other than the general formula (2) and the general formula (3) contained in the thermoplastic polyimide include, for example, diamine residues derived from the following diamine compounds: 2 ,2'-Dimethyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl (m-TB), 2,2'-diethyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl (m-EB), 2,2 '-diethoxy-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl (m-EOB), 2,2'-dipropoxy-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl (m-POB), 2,2 '-n-propyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl (m-NPB), 2,2'-divinyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl (VAB), 4,4'-diamino Biphenyl, 4,4'-diamino-2,2'-bis(trifluoromethyl)biphenyl (TFMB), p-phenylenediamine (p-PDA), m-phenylenediamine (m- PDA), 3,3'-diaminodiphenylmethane, 3,3'-diaminodiphenylpropane, 3,3'-diaminodiphenyl sulfide, 3,3'-diaminodiphenyl Sulfone, 3,3-diaminodiphenyl ether, 3,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether, 3,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane, 3,4'-diaminodiphenylpropane, 3 ,4'-diaminodiphenyl sulfide, 3,3'-diaminobenzophenone, (3,3'-bisamino)diphenylamine, 1,4-bis(3-aminophenoxy) ) benzene, 3-[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenoxy]aniline, 3-[3-(4-aminophenoxy)phenoxy]aniline, 1,3-bis(3-amino) Phenoxy)benzene (1,3-bis(3-aminophenoxy)benzene, APB), 4,4'-[2-methyl-(1,3-phenylene)bisoxy]dianiline, 4, 4'-[4-Methyl-(1,3-phenylene)bisoxy]bisaniline, 4,4'-[5-methyl-(1,3-phenylene)bisoxy]bis Aniline, bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]methane, bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]propane, bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl] ] ether, bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)phenyl]sulfone, bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy)]benzophenone, bis[4,4'-(3-aminobenzene oxy)]benzylaniline, 4-[3-[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenoxy]phenoxy]aniline, 4,4'-[oxybis(3,1-ylidene) phenyloxy)] bisaniline, bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]ether (BAPE), bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl]ketone (BAPK), bis [4-(3-aminophenoxy)]biphenyl, bis[4-(4-aminophenoxy)]biphenyl, and the like.

In the thermoplastic polyimide, by selecting the kinds of the tetracarboxylic acid residues and the diamine residues, or the respective molar ratios when two or more tetracarboxylic acid residues or diamine residues are used, The thermal expansion coefficient, tensile elastic coefficient, glass transition temperature, etc. can be controlled. In addition, when the thermoplastic polyimide has a plurality of structural units of the polyimide, it may exist in the form of a block or may exist randomly, and it is preferable to exist randomly.

The thermoplastic polyimide which comprises a thermoplastic polyimide layer can improve the adhesiveness with a metal layer. The glass transition temperature of such a thermoplastic polyimide is in the range of 200°C or higher and 350°C or lower, preferably in the range of 200°C or higher and 320°C or lower.

The imide group concentration of the thermoplastic polyimide is preferably 35% by weight or less. Here, the "imide group concentration" means a value obtained by dividing the molecular weight of the imide group (-(CO) ₂ -N-) in the polyimide by the molecular weight of the entire structure of the polyimide. When the imide group concentration exceeds 35% by weight, the molecular weight of the resin itself becomes small, and the low hygroscopicity also deteriorates due to an increase in polar groups. By selecting the combination of the acid anhydride and the diamine compound, the orientation of the molecules in the thermoplastic polyimide is controlled, thereby suppressing the increase in CTE accompanying the decrease in the imide group concentration, thereby ensuring low hygroscopicity.

The weight average molecular weight of the thermoplastic polyimide is, for example, preferably in the range of 10,000 to 400,000, and more preferably in the range of 50,000 to 350,000. When the weight-average molecular weight is less than 10,000, the strength of the insulating resin layer tends to be lowered and it tends to become brittle. On the other hand, when the weight average molecular weight exceeds 400,000, the viscosity tends to increase excessively, and defects such as uneven thickness and streaks tend to be easily generated during the coating operation.

(Synthesis of non-thermoplastic polyimide and thermoplastic polyimide)

Generally, a polyimide can be manufactured by making a tetracarboxylic dianhydride and a diamine compound react in a solvent, and heating ring-closure after generating a polyamic acid. For example, the tetracarboxylic dianhydride and the diamine compound are dissolved in an organic solvent in approximately equimolar amounts, and the polymerization reaction is carried out by stirring at a temperature in the range of 0°C to 100°C for 30 minutes to 24 hours. A polyamic acid that is a precursor of an imide. During the reaction, the reaction components are dissolved in the organic solvent so that the produced precursor is in the range of 5 to 30% by weight, preferably in the range of 10 to 20% by weight. Examples of the organic solvent used in the polymerization reaction include N,N-dimethylformamide (N,N-dimethylformamide, DMF), N,N-dimethylacetamide (N,N-dimethylacetamide, DMAc) ), N,N-diethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), 2-butanone, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), six Methyl phosphoramide, N-methyl caprolactam, dimethyl sulfate, cyclohexanone, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether (diglyme), triethylene glycol dimethyl ether (triglyme), cresol Wait. These solvents can be used in combination of two or more, and aromatic hydrocarbons such as xylene and toluene can also be used in combination. Moreover, the usage-amount in particular of such an organic solvent is not restrict|limited, It is preferable to adjust and use so that the density|concentration of the polyamic-acid solution obtained by a polymerization reaction may become about 5 weight% - 30weight%.

The synthesized polyamic acid is usually advantageously used in the form of a reaction solvent solution, and can be concentrated, diluted or replaced with other organic solvents as necessary. Moreover, since polyamic acid is generally excellent in solvent solubility, it can be used advantageously. The viscosity of the solution of the polyamic acid is preferably in the range of 500 cps to 100,000 cps. If it deviates from the said range, when coating operation with a coater etc. is performed, it is easy to generate|occur|produce defects, such as thickness unevenness and a streak, in a film. The method of imidizing the polyamic acid is not particularly limited, and for example, a heat treatment such as heating in the solvent at a temperature in the range of 80° C. to 400° C. for 1 hour to 24 hours is suitably employed.

<Metal layer>

For example, the metal constituting the metal layer is selected from the group consisting of copper, aluminum, stainless steel, iron, silver, palladium, nickel, chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, zirconium, gold, cobalt, titanium, tantalum, zinc, lead, tin, silicon, bismuth, Metals in indium or their alloys, etc. The metal layer may be formed by methods such as sputtering, vapor deposition, and plating, but it is preferable to use a metal foil from the viewpoint of adhesiveness. Particularly preferred in terms of conductivity is copper foil. The copper foil may be either an electrolytic copper foil or a rolled copper foil. In addition, in the case of continuously producing the metal-clad laminate of the present embodiment, a long metal foil having a predetermined thickness wound in a roll shape is used as the metal foil.

Hereinafter, as a preferred embodiment of the metal-clad laminate, a copper-clad laminate having a copper layer will be described.

＜Copper clad laminate＞

The copper-clad laminate of the present embodiment only needs to include an insulating layer, and at least one surface of the insulating layer only needs to include a copper layer such as copper foil. Moreover, in order to improve the adhesiveness of an insulating layer and a copper layer, the layer in contact with the copper layer among the insulating layers is a thermoplastic polyimide layer. The copper layer is arranged on one side or both sides of the insulating layer. That is, the copper clad laminate of this embodiment may be a single-sided copper clad laminate (single-sided CCL) or a double-sided copper clad laminate (double-sided CCL). In the case of single-sided CCL, the copper layer laminated on one surface of the insulating layer is referred to as the "first copper layer" in the present invention. In the case of double-sided CCL, the copper layer laminated on one side of the insulating layer is referred to as the "first copper layer" in the present invention, and the surface laminated on the insulating layer is on the opposite side to the surface on which the first copper layer is laminated. The copper layer on the surface is referred to as the "second copper layer" in the present invention. The copper-clad laminate of the present embodiment performs wiring circuit processing by etching or the like of the copper layer to form copper wiring, and is used as an FPC.

A copper-clad laminate can also be prepared, for example, by preparing a resin film, sputtering metal to form a seed layer, and then forming a copper layer by, for example, copper plating.

In addition, a copper-clad laminate can also be prepared by preparing a resin film and laminating copper foil thereon by a method such as thermocompression bonding.

Furthermore, a copper-clad laminate can also be prepared by casting a coating liquid containing a polyamic acid as a precursor of a polyimide on a copper foil, drying it to obtain a coating film, and then performing a heat treatment to obtain a coating film. imidization to form a polyimide layer.

(1st copper layer)

In the copper-clad laminate of the present embodiment, the copper foil (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "first copper foil") used in the first copper layer is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, rolled copper foil or electrolytic copper. foil.

The thickness of the first copper foil is preferably 13 μm or less, and more preferably within a range of 6 μm to 12 μm. When the thickness of the first copper foil exceeds 13 μm, the bending stress applied to the copper layer (or copper wiring) when the copper clad laminate (or FPC) is bent becomes large, thereby reducing the bending resistance. Moreover, it is preferable to set the lower limit of the thickness of a 1st copper foil to 6 micrometers from a viewpoint of production stability and workability|operativity.

Moreover, it is preferable to exist in the range of 10GPa-35GPa, and, as for the tensile elastic modulus of a 1st copper foil, for example, it is more preferable to exist in the range of 15GPa-25GPa. In the present embodiment, when the rolled copper foil is used as the first copper foil, when annealing is performed by heat treatment, the flexibility tends to increase. Therefore, when the tensile modulus of elasticity of the copper foil is less than the lower limit value, in the step of forming the insulating layer on the long first copper foil, the rigidity of the first copper foil itself is lowered by heating. On the other hand, when the tensile elastic modulus exceeds the upper limit value, a larger bending stress is applied to the copper wiring when the FPC is bent, and the bending resistance thereof decreases. In addition, the tensile elastic modulus of the rolled copper foil tends to vary depending on the heat treatment conditions at the time of forming the insulating layer on the copper foil, the annealing treatment of the copper foil after forming the insulating layer, and the like. Therefore, in the present embodiment, in the finally obtained copper-clad laminate, the tensile modulus of elasticity of the first copper foil may be within the above-described range.

The first copper foil is not particularly limited, and a commercially available rolled copper foil can be used.

(2nd copper layer)

The second copper layer is laminated on the surface opposite to the first copper layer among the insulating layers. The copper foil (2nd copper foil) used for a 2nd copper layer is not specifically limited, For example, a rolled copper foil may be sufficient, and an electrolytic copper foil may be sufficient as it. Moreover, a commercially available copper foil can also be used as a 2nd copper foil. In addition, the same copper foil as the 1st copper foil can also be used as a 2nd copper foil.

<Circuit board>

The metal-clad laminate of the present embodiment is mainly useful as a material for circuit boards such as FPC. For example, a circuit board such as an FPC which is an embodiment of the present invention can be produced by patterning the copper layer of the copper-clad laminate described above by a common method to form a wiring layer.
